Alexander Isak is at the heart of a bitter dispute between Newcastle and Liverpool, with the Swedish striker reportedly refusing to play for the Magpies ever again

Alexander Isak's potential blockbuster move to Liverpool is set to dominate the rest of the summer transfer window - but how did his relationship with Newcastle unravel to bring us here?

Alexander Isak has reportedly vacated his Newcastle home as he looks to force a move to Liverpool. The Times reports that the property in Ponteland that Isak has lived in for three years - since his arrival on Tyneside in 2022 - was put on the rental market the day after the Swedish striker was omitted from the Magpies’ players and families day.
